That was my bitch about the ride back! I had to cancel the cruise a lot because of other idiots that wouldn't move or slowed down in front of me. I figured my MPG would be whupped because the truck goes WFO when I hit resume. Still got 19 on the way back.
I like driving 1st thing in the morning, not many people out and I like watching the sun come up as I cruise on down the road.

Late evening to early morning drives I love. Not a whole lot of people or cops. I did a stretch of interstate in my 01 BBC Suburban. 15 miles of pure bliss with no cops, hitting the 110mph speed limiter, hearing all 496 cu inches come out through 2 2.5" glass packs. Surprisingly quiet.

Driving at night is alright, but farming at night is a blast assuming I'm not beat tired. Light up the night in the tractor!

I loved farming at night. I liked to watch the sun set in the tractor then turning all the lights on lol..Even if it was in a John Deere.

I drive wfo every time I take off now a days... I notice with a lowly ve that it doesn't really make that big of a difference. Still is fun though. Ducati got to hear my incredibly slow, blowing half the compression past the rings, ve hit like 4 grand though...............on stock valve springs.


On a side note.... I have learned that a 6.7 can run on virtually ANY turbo on the planet. Because it is the first Cummins that can run unloaded with a turbo delete. 1400 rpm, in 6th, with zero psi... up a hill.... not a problem. Holy frick. That makes for an easy rig to beef up.

Is he finally on his way home? I googled Slave Lake and saw where he came from to go to Peru. He drove as far in Canada as he did in the states, he lives waaaaaay up there!

1931 miles from Peru to Slave Lake. DMann you must love being in that truck. Lol

I do love to drive. And no I'm not on my way home yet. I'm in Corvallis visiting a friend for a few days.

Eric thanks again for the hospitality, and showing off the rc, and cr. your son is a pretty cool little fellow. I'll be sure to post up pictures when I get those traction bars on.

On another note when I got near the Idaho/Montana border when the speed limit drops to 55 I couldn't keep egts in check at all in 6th at about 1600rpm. I only let it go to 1200 before dropping to 5th where it promptly dropped to sub 1100. If I hold 1900rpm in 6th she'll stay at 1100*. I suspect a small part of my issue is a dirty air filter

So the race has been run.

I am no longer a 1st gen owner. I traded it off on a Chevy that's worth more and should sell quicker. It is a sad day. If there are any members near Mattoon, Illinois, keep an eye out for it.
